The surname Haughney (Aughney) is of Irish origin and derives from the Irish Gaelige "Mac Fhachtna" meaning "son of Fachtna". The name Fachtna was in ancient times a popular christian name steming from the Irish Saint of that name. The surname Haughney is quite rare in Ireland with only 153 records appearing in the 1911 National Census of Ireland which shows a distribution of the name occuring mainly in the Carlow/Kilkenny area of Leinster.
